Happy 3rd Birthday

January 16th was my 3rd birthday!!! A few days before, I had a party at the local ice arena with some of my friends, I feel like such a big girl!

While waiting for the guests to arrive, I sat and watched the Zamboni do it's work!

Then we had yummy chocolate cake and opened presents.


But the best part was getting ready to skate! It took some practice, but I figured out how to walk in skates pretty fast!


And once everyone was ready we headed out on to the ice. Dada helped me get my balance at first, so did the chair.
And it wasn't long before we were off and around the rink we went! I felt like a real ice skater!

The next day, we went and picked out my special big girl bike! It's got fairies all over it, and the handle bars play music! I can't wait to ride out on my own!

Happy Holidays

Merry Christmas! Ellsworth and I had a very special holiday together, we did lots of baking with Mama, helped wrap presents and even got a brand new white Christmas tree!

On Christmas Eve, we had dinner and opened presents with Gama Jan. One of my favorite gifts was my Leap Pad Explorer! Its like having my very own computer!
After opening all the gifts, our poor little tree looked lonely. But Gama Jan had one more very special gift for me.....

Belle from Beauty and the Beast!!! She's my favorite Disney Princess, and I was so excited to finally have her!
That night, I left out homemade cookies and a glass of milk for Santa. The next morning, I came downstairs to find that he had eaten the cookies and drank the milk! He even left me a very nice thank you note :)
When I rushed over to the tree I saw that Santa had brought me the Hungry Hippo game, and seven Disney Princess dolls! It was such a surprise!

On Christmas day I had dinner at Gigi and Yeye's house and got to exchange presents with my cousin Jainey!

There were a lot of gifts to open, so after all of that hard work we took a rest and watched a holiday movie. It was a wonderful Christmas! I've already started my list for Santa for next year. ;)
